Today's message is addressed to all those citizens and followers, who through your efforts have made possible the development of the country I represent.
I want first of all, congratulate you and wish you a happy new year 2018.
The year 2017 has been a historic year in our country. There have been a group of circumstances that have made this 2017, a year that will go down in history.
Scenarios such as my coronation, the incorporation of representatives and diplomats abroad, the diffusion of our Principality abroad, have been moments of splendor in the history of our country occurred this year 2017.
Unfortunately, not everything has been good news in Pontinha. Our relations with Portugal have worsened to the point of not being able to access the Fort of San José, territory that makes up the political unit of Pontinha.
However, from here I want to thank all the support to all citizens, nobles and followers around the world who have decided to contribute to a better development of my Principality. To all of you, wish you a happy new year.
